Whilst, however, it is admitted, that slavery is a hostile princi- ple in any society and government, especially in one like ours, and therefore, an " evil," it is nevertheless maintained to be an evil so in- terwoven with the habits and rights of our people as to be incorrigible by any means consistent with these, and at the same time, within our reach; and upon this double view of the case, the efficacy, as well as propriety, of legislation upon it, is challenged.
Your committee, sir, declare... that legislation " at present is inexpe- dient:" The amendment proposed, and now under discussion, declares the contrary. Believing that the amendment takes the true ground, I shall endeavor to sustain it: and in so doing, will present the consi- derations which I have to submit without reference to method, and without limiting myself to ihe only point which is strictly before us, that of expediency, I will, under the sanction of the general example, look a little to the mode of legislation also, and see whether there be any principle on which it may be justly and rightfully exercised.
